"Fact Checking" is a recent phenomena included in media sources
There is little doubt that Agence-France Presse is one of the most trustworthy and unbiased news agencies in the world.

Fact-checking at AFP: factcheck.afp.com

Fact-checking has been a core element of AFP’s work as a global news agency for more than 180 years. (recent phenomenon?)
The company itself has a unique status under a French law, which stipulates that AFP can in no circumstances be influenced by anything which might compromise the accuracy or objectivity of information. It must, in no circumstances, fall under the control of an ideological, political or economic group. It also states that AFP must seek to give French and foreign users precise, impartial and trustworthy information in a regular, uninterrupted manner.
"Fact checkers" are recent fashion because people cannot think critically anymore
Yes, that has been amply demonstrated on this thread over the last few weeks.
